Description

Escape Milan’s concrete jungle and discover a unique blend of tradition and culture in the vibrant Navigli district. On this private food journey, eat, drink, and explore Navigli like a local, with a guide dedicated only to your group. You'll move at your own pace between regional flavors and canal-side stops, building from casual bites to a proper sit-down finish. Along the way, wander streets shaped by Leonardo da Vinci's original canal system, past shared-balcony courtyards and narrow washerwomen's alleys that still carry centuries of history. The handpicked tastings trace a line from Liguria to Milan: golden farinata and focaccia first, then a rich risotto alla milanese, with gelato closing things out the old-fashioned way. The stops share a common devotion to craft, offering a genuine Navigli food experience at your desired pace.
